It is driven by multiple factors, including educational opportunities, practice setting, and personal interests. Because competency is highly personalized and develops across the career span, no infection preventionist (IP) is expected to be “advanced” in most/all areas at any particular time. The goal is to identify areas for individual improvement so that professional development becomes a lifelong endeavor.The core competencies identified by CBIC and the future oriented domains added by APIC are complementary and not mutually exclusive categories. By integrating them into one comprehensive self-assessment, the IP will be better prepared to address both immediate and evolving professional demands.Core competencies as identified by CBIC remain relevant across the career span but their implementation evolves as proficiency increases. Therefore, assessment of core competencies for proficient and advanced IPs focuses on how these skills are applied and the extent to which the IP is able to utilize them to foster program development and to assist others in their prevention efforts.The future-oriented domains described by APIC build on the core competencies. The content may at times appear to overlap. However, the future oriented domains attempt to identify those skills not yet included in the CBIC practice analysis but which, based on observation and professional consensus, are expected to be essential for IP practice in the next three to five years. ................
